The Presidents Great-Grandfather in
 NeWingtOn.

The Presidents Great.Grand ndfather in
 Newington.
 The Rev. Aaron Cleveland, the great grand father of President Cleveland, preached in Newington, Ct.. for about year in the Con- gregational church, as temporary pastor in the interval between the long pastorates of the Revs. Joshua Belden and Joab Brace. The last sermon of MT. Belden was preached November 6, 1903, and the first sermon of Mir Brace was preached October 7, 1904, and between these dates the pulpit was supplied by MT. Cleveland. The ordination of Mr. Brace took place January 16, 1895, and MT. Cleveland was one of the ministers present as 8 member of the ordaining council. He had a son William, born December 20, 1770, and he had a son, Richard Falley Cleveland, who graduated at Yale in 1924, and was the father of Grover Cleveland. To what extent the
 latter owes his elevation to the presidency to
 the fact that his great-grandfather preached in Newington is not ascertained, but it is certain that the great-grandfather enjoyed his relation as pastor over the NeWlngton church and to demonstrate it we extract from our own files of July IS, 1904, an account of a Fourth of July celebration in Newington, in which he took a prominent part:

eyes were looking sternly at them over her gold-rimmed spectacles. They could not quite comprehend such a double minded woman.
 The old lady was very indulgent. She rather enjoyed the mischievous- ness of her granddaughters, when one of them pulled out all the knitting needles from her carefully guarded stocking, thus causing the dropping of the stitches, the old lady reproved mildly, her smile showing that the joke was appreciated.
 But there was no indulgence shown to the liar. Equivocation of any kind was her aversion. Downright truthfulness she demanded, and her reproof was severe but when reproof brought forth penitence, and the guilt was confessed, then the old lady was changed. Gently, lovingly was the returned wanderer received, and very lenient was her condemnation.
 It was not strange that the children were fascinated by such a grand mother, and looked up to her as the bright light of the home circle. One of these granddaughters became mis- sionary to China.

Predesperation.

The following sketch is "going around" credited to first one and then another publication. It was written by the editor ot TIE ARKAN- SAW TRAvELER and was first published in the Little Rock Gazette.
 An old-time Baptist preacher of one of our southern towns, who has retired from active gospel dealing but who still keeps firm eye on the faith, has just had little experience with colored man which caused him to think very seriously. Meeting the colored man, the preacher said "Dave, if you don't bring that saddle home, Pll have you put in jail"
 "What saddle is yer 'ferrin ter?"
 "The one you stole from me-"
 "Parson, for de LOT, I nebber stole your saddle"
 "Yes, you did. l saw you when you took it off the yard fence. I believe I'll have you arrested, anyway"
 Look heah, parson, yous'e old Baptist, isn't yer?"
 "Yes, and I'll have you sent to the penitentiary.
 "Well, so is I, an' now ketch de pints as l gin 'em to yer. Oar is jes so many saddles in dis worP what is ter be stole, am dar's jes so many men what is ter steal desc saddles. Dis is prcdcspcra:ion. Now i: yer saddle happens ter be ob de predisposed sad dies, an happens ter be one ob dc predisposed men. kin l help it? II want Judas fault, case he was one ot de predisposed, so tended from de foundation ob de worP."
 The retired preacher paused and then continued thoughtfully:
 "I don't want religious discussion Dave. It isn't the saddle now that care so much about. It is that you told me lie ill saying that you didn't steal. A lie once told always stands You have lied to me, you scoundrel and l believe it is my duty to have you arrested"
 "Parson, dar's jes certain amount ob lies to be tole in dis worf, an if is one ob de men what is predisposed to tell one ob desc lies, it is not my fault, an I kaint help it."
 You go on now and get that sad dle, or Pll swear warrant out fol your arrest"
 "I'll do the best I kin, parson, but dar's jes certain amount ob stole saddles to be returned in dis worp. Ii I is one of de predisposed men, an believes I is, you'll find yer saddle hangin' on de yard fence about sum- down dis evenin'."

HOW THE KING CAME HOME.

"Oh, why are you waiting, children. And why are you watching the wayP' eve are watching because the folks have said The King comes home today The King on his prancing charger, In his shining golden crown, Oh the bells will ring, the glad birds sing, When the King comes back to the town" "Run home to your mothers, children; In the land is wrath and woe, And the King, beyond the forest, Fights with the Paynim foe" But" said the little children, The fight will soon be past We fain would wait, though the hour be late, He will surely come at last" So the eager children waited Till the closing of the day, Till their eyes were tired of gazing Along the dusty way; But there came no sound of music, No flashing golden crown; And tears they shed as they crept to bed, When the round red sun went down. E. at the hour of midnight, While the weary children slept, Was heard within the city The voice of them that wept Along the moonlit highway Toward the sacred dome, Dead on his shield. from the well fought field, Twas thus the King came home.
